    Well done, Kurt. Now, where can you see this picture?

      I can only guess that its in the Vatican. I can't find it by Googling, although I could try a more extensive search if it is not there.

        Sorry, it's not the Vatican, but it is in a major port in one of the major participants in the Christian alliance at Lepanto.

          Luckily, I have been pointed to Barcelona, my searching was not bringing results, but I do know about Lepanto now! There were a number of countries taking part! Must check the outcome!

          Belligerents:

          Republic of Venice
          Spain Spanish Empire (with the Kingdoms of Sardinia, Naples and Sicily)
          Republic of Genoa

                clue: This is part of a larger asaroton (unswept floor).

                  I think it is here in Boston's Haymarket.

                  Pieces of debris from the market have been set in bronze to depict every day life in the market. You learn something new everyday.

                    You are quite right. There is a market there some days and it is on the heritage trail.

                        Hi Audrey,

                        Well, it certainly looks like China, but it's a big place and I've never had the chance to go there! Off to Google!

                          Not China, but in the right area.

                            Is it the Pagoda Bridge in Hoi An, Vietnam?

                            The clue I used to find this location was the flag.

                              Aren't you the clever one. I actually know it as the Japanese Bridge, but it is obviously the same one.

                              Over to you now.

                                Ok try this one.



                                I took this many years ago as a slide with my OM-1. This is a picture of the slide, I was pleased with the outcome.
